Shrimp boil, plus chicken gumbo and homemade sausage from Jimbo, a chef hailing from NOLA. Happening tonight, and once a month (skipping December), at Loafers, 2600 W. Lawrence. The sausage is complexly spiced with a satisfying texture. The shrimp is meaty and has great seasoning. When it's the season, he does a crawfish boil. $5 for a bowl of gumbo; $15 for one pound of shrimp with sausage, potato and corn.
I love it when I accidentally walk by my dinner.
"To get long" meant to make do, to make well of whatever we had; it was about having a long view, which was endurance, and a long heart, which was hope.
